| Programme Descriptions
+ Benefits of Each | Balance between freedom and supervision + cultural exposure. With family homestay, students have more supervision than in residence and have all meals provided. They also benefit from social interaction with host partner of approximately the same age. General Spanish Classes are mixed with our small adult acadmy. Also most of the activities are mixed too, although teens will also on occassions have their events. Families will also do events with students. A-Level classes only teens. | Perfect experience for those wishing for guided independence especially those who in next year or 2 will be living away from home. Students are part of the wonderful student atmosphere of Sparkville and at the most affordable price of any of the teenage programme. A Spark staff member sleeps in the residence, though please note that students are NOT constantly supervised in this programme and are allowed to come and go. This programme is therefore suitable only for responsible teens which is why we also offer the homestay option to left. There is always a Spark staff member in the residence for help and support. Classes and activities mixed with our adult language academy. No meals but self-catering facilities in the residence. |
*** Don’t forget we also run a personal year round option of FamilyStay + Spanish Course. ***
*1 With the Spanish Course and Homestay and Residence options, all general spanish classes are assigned by level and mixed with other adult students in our Spanish Academy. The A-Level class is only with students of that age group. This class could also be in the aftenoon at times if needed due to activity or teacher availability reasons.
*2 With the Spanish Course and Homestay and Residence options: cultural activities are organized by Spark free of charge. Although some events have no cost, we don’t cover costs like meals, entrance tickets, bike hire etc. which are optional expenses for the students. If the event can be done in our van, we provide transport free, but if done by train or bus, again the student pays for these tickets themselves.
